Concord, CA, United States Seneca Family of Agencies Full time

As the Crisis Counselor, you will provide crisis support for youth enrolled in the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP). Counselors will facilitate daily group sessions and individual supports in collaboration with the transdisciplinary team. Counselors will provide a safe and nurturing environment for youth enrolled in the program and will intervene as necessary to assist the youth in developing skills for growth and maintaining stabilization. Counselors will participate in the daily clinical treatment planning with the transdisciplinary team and assist the PHP Clinician with case management duties as appropriate.

ABOUT STEP PROGRAMS

The STEP (Skills, Transitions, Exploration, and Progress) program provides Partial Hospitalization services to youth ages 12-17. The goal of the STEP program is to provide intensive, short-term stabilization services to enable our clients to step down to lower levels of outpatient mental health treatment. All groups are designed to teach youth the skills necessary to help them learn about their mental health, provide psychoeducation, and help them learn skills to feel better and be safe. STEP consists of a multidisciplinary team of counselors, clinicians, a nurse, psychiatrist, and program supervisor.
